MAGNETIC SMART SEAL FOR OVERHEAD GARAGE DOOR
A system provides a garage door that has panels pivotally interconnected and spanning horizontally across a door opening defined by a door frame. The panels have rollers that are movably engaged with tracks extending along lateral sides of the door frame. A motorized opener is coupled with the garage door and is configured to move the garage door along the tracks between an open position and a closed position in the garage door opening. The motorized opener has a controller for controlling movement of the garage door. A magnet is disposed at opposing lateral sides of the door frame. The magnets are configured to magnetically engage the garage door in the closed position and to release magnetic engagement with the garage door in response to a signal from the controller for the garage door to move to the open position.
